+Okay, so I'm trying to understand this problem with the QEMU SYSTICK implementation. From what I gather, there's an issue where after setting the SYST_CSR.ENABLE bit, the counter isn't behaving correctly. The COUNTFLAG is being set based on old values of RVR, which it shouldn't do once the counter is enabled.
+
+The original context mentions that when you write to SYST_CVR (current value register), if the enable bit is set, QEMU doesn't handle it properly. It seems like when you reload the SYSTICK timer by writing to CVR, the counter isn't starting correctly unless certain conditions are met.
+
+Looking at the provided diff, it modifies the systick_write function. The key changes here are:
+
+1. After reloading the timer (systick_reload(s, 1)), there's a check if the control register doesn't have the ENABLE bit set.
+2. If it's not enabled, it explicitly sets s->tick to 0.
+
+I think the reasoning is that when you write to SYST_CVR, which triggers systick_reload, if the timer isn't currently running (ENABLE not set), you should reset the tick value so that when you later enable it, it starts from the correct reload value. This ensures that when ENABLE is eventually set, the counter will load the new RVR and start counting down properly.
+
+Wait, but why does setting s->tick to 0 help? Because if the timer isn't enabled, any changes to CVR should not affect the running count. By resetting tick to 0, you're ensuring that when the timer is started later, it doesn't have any residual value and starts fresh with the new RVR.
+
+Another point: in QEMU's previous implementation, after writing to SYST_CVR, if ENABLE wasn't set, the counter still might not reset correctly. This could cause COUNTFLAG to be incorrectly set because the old RVR was used. By explicitly clearing s->tick when not enabled, you prevent any leftover state that would interfere with the next reload.
+
+So the diff ensures that whenever SYST_CVR is written and the timer isn't running, the internal tick value is cleared. This way, when the timer is started later (ENABLE set), it correctly starts from the new RVR without any old state messing things up.
+
+I'm trying to see if this makes sense in terms of the Cortex-M3's behavior. The user guide says that writes to SYST_CVR must clear any cached state so that a subsequent write to ENABLE will reload properly. So the change here aligns with that by resetting s->tick when necessary.
+
+In summary, the diff modifies the write function to handle cases where after reloading, if the timer isn't enabled, it resets the tick to 0. This prevents incorrect behavior when later enabling the timer and should fix issues where COUNTFLAG was being set based on old values.
+</think>
+
+To address the issue with QEMU's SYSTICK implementation, a change is made in the `systick_write` function to ensure proper handling of the counter state.
+
+**Changes Made:**
+
+1. **Explicit Tick Reset:** After reloading the timer via `systick_reload(s, 1)`, if the SYSTICK is not enabled (checked using `(s->control & SYSTICK_ENABLE)`), the internal tick value (`s->tick`) is set to 0. This clears any residual state, ensuring that when the timer is later enabled, it starts counting from the correct reload value.
+
+2. **Prevents Incorrect COUNTFLAG:** By resetting `s->tick`, we prevent the COUNTFLAG from being incorrectly set based on old values of SYST_RVR. This ensures that the counter behaves as expected once enabled.
+
+**Explanation:**
+
+- When writing to SYST_CVR, if the timer is not enabled, resetting `s->tick` ensures that subsequent enables will start fresh with the new RVR value.
+- This change adheres to the Cortex-M3 documentation, which states that writes to SYST_CVR should clear any cached state to allow proper reloading when ENABLE is set.
+
+This modification fixes issues where COUNTFLAG was incorrectly set due to old RVR values and ensures that the SYSTICK timer behaves correctly according to its specification.
